CANADA – Fresh produce has now gone where no variety has gone before: cheese! Exclusively in Canada, Whole Foods Market now offers vegan cheese line Nuts for Cheese, dairy-free hand-crafted cheese wedges made from the milk of cultured organic cashews.
Cultured using traditional fermentation processes then air-dried and aged for sharpness, Nuts for Cheese's plant-based cheese line offers convincingly cheese-like wedges in a variety of flavors. And cashews aren’t the only fresh produce item featured in the creamy wedges. The five flavors also include produce favorites, like:
- Coconut! Un-Brie-Lievable is a soft and creamy blend of coconut and cashew
- Algae! The sharp Super “Blue” is marbled with algae powder
- Peppers! The bold and spicy Chipotle “Cheddar” is marbled with crushed chipotle peppers
- Turmeric! The mild Red Rind has a turmeric and paprika rind
- Artichoke and pumpkin! The Smoky Artichoke and Herb is marbled with a pumpkin seed and artichoke pesto
That’s one small step for vegans, one giant leap for a sustainable, produce-happy mankind!
